fifteen

Oh my goodness, my birthday weekend was wonderful. First, there was raspberry hot chocolate in the morning, and then surprise at my locker with birthday balloons and heartfelt notes and a taco bell gift card, and oh my goodness three chocolate cakes, and a bag of Twix, and a singing card, and a Lilo and Stitch movie night and holy cow,

needless to say, I was one happy girl.

And now I can identify with these lovely songs.








Because I'm fifteen now and oh so awesome, and also because I love making lists, I'm going to make a list of fifteen quirky things about me.


Fifteen Quirky Things About Me:

1. I like oregano in my scrambled eggs.

2. I love to smell books.

3. I shop at thrift stores. A lot.

4. If I could be a smell I would be the smell of rain after it's been dry for a long time. 

5. My favorite words are serendipity, ethereal, and rendezvous.

6. I am nerdy enough to have favorite words.

7. I really love flower clips that you put in your hair. And they have buttons on them sometimes? Oh, yeah. They're so neat.

8. Also, I love the word neat. I'm going to start using it more often, thank you Graci.

9. I love making lists.

10. Obviously.

11. I just can't get over those flower clips.

12. If I was a material I would be fleece. It's so warm. And fleecey.

13. My super power of choice would be flying.

14. I want to own a bookshop someday.

15. This one's the best one. When I'm in the car, sometimes I listen to 40's music on satelite radio. And I pretend that I ride my bike everywhere, and wear a dress all the time. And go to malt shops with my friends where everything is a quarter. And request songs from juke boxes. That sounds awesome.

16. Man, I wish life was like that.

Wait, that's sixteen things. Oh well.

Guys, I am ready to rock this next part of my life. Permit time, girly slumber parties, stake dances, seminary, high school, Disney movie nights.

Dang, I think fifteen is looking pretty swell on me.

Enjoy your day and remember you are awesome.
